I got a 2 on my ap biology exam...T_T?

Question

omg i cannot believe this, i was expecting at least a 3!! I'm really disappointed, it's not even funny, my parents are gonna kill me when they find out!! What the heck am I supposed to do! I won't get into a good college, and I'll fail at life. T___T I'm gonna dieee.

What I really want to do is retake the AP Exam, but can you even do that? and will it look bad on like, the transcript or whatever shows colleges your ap grades??

Answer 1

DON'T WORRY, please if it makes you feel any better, I got a 1 on AP Bio, but I'm a senior and was already accepted to the college of my choice so it didn't really matter. (It's a selective college too) Trust me, your transcript will not have your AP grades on them only the courses you took and the final grades you got in those courses. It will not be a deciding factor in admission, they just want to actually see that you took AP classes. I went through the whole process with my counselors and I can tell you that you should not stress about it. AP grades are only used for placement and exemption from introductory courses, not for admission.

Answer 2

yeah, you can definitely retake it. don't feel too bad. that whole f*cking exam was botany, not biology. i'm not even kidding

it was honestly the WORST test i've ever taken in my life.

but i studied like SH*T for it. tutor, highlighting every pg of barrons, practice ap tests.... so i (very surprisingly) got a 5

no, it probably won't look bad if you retake it. it's not the end of the world if you don't, though. are you planning on going into medical? if so, retake it
